 B.4.2 Please Don't Post Bug Reports to USENET
 ---------------------------------------------
 
      I gave up on Usenet a couple of years ago and haven't really looked
      back.  It's like sports talk radio--you feel smarter for not having
      read it.

    Please do _not_ try to report bugs in 'gawk' by posting to the
 Usenet/Internet newsgroup 'comp.lang.awk'.  Although some of the 'gawk'
 developers occasionally read this news group, the primary 'gawk'
 maintainer no longer does.  Thus it's virtually guaranteed that he will
 _not_ see your posting.  The steps described here are the only
 officially recognized way for reporting bugs.  Really.
